TripleB Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I put all my current Green Day CDs (1039 SOSH, Kerplunk, Dookie, Insomniac, Int. SH) on the computer this morning in order to start creating a 'Best of Green Day CD.' I've got American Idiots and BIAB coming within the next week so I figured I'd get a head start in trimming down the list so I could get 'The Best of Green Day' on 1 disc (80 minutes of music). After going through 1,039 and Kerplunk I decided that it was going to have to become a 2 disc set (160 minutes). Now after going through Insomniac and Dookie I just don't think there is any hope of creating a 'Best of Green Day' set........THERE ARE JUST NOT THAT MANY SONGS YOU CAN LEAVE OUT!!!Has anyone else hear tried to create a 'Green Day Best of" CD set? If so, how did you leave out that many great songs???TripleB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Felony Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I simply went through and took my "18 favorite songs of GD." It can be a bit difficult but you have to narrow things down a bit to fit them in. Mine was comprised of:1. Working Class Hero2. Longview3. Basket Case4. Brain Stew5. Nice Guys Finish Last6. Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)7. Take Back8. Church on Sunday9. Castaway10. Hold On11. Deadbeat Holiday12. Warning13. Minority14. Walking Contradiction15. Jesus of Suburbia16. At the Library17. Don't Leave Me18. Christie RoadAlthough I'am still missing the Shenanigans CD in my collection, that is the "Best of Green Day," cd I made for myself to listen to. Of course, not everyone will agree on the songs I've picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Disappearing Boy Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 the best way to avoid this problem, is don't create a 'best of' CD. just listen to all of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeJennsitized Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I know what you mean. I find it impossible to choose a favourite GD album because of it.I made a CD of my favourite Green Day songs, but that was years ago.I'd say, from the top of my head, my favourite 20 Green Day songs, in no particular order, are;1. Burnout2. Babs Uvula Who3. At The Library4. Holiday5. Castaway6. Pulling Teeth7. Homecoming8. Only Of You9. Armatage Shanks10. Sassafras Roots11. Westbound Sign12. American Idiot13. St. Jimmy14. Welcome To Paradise15. The Judges Daughter16. The Grouch17. Nice Guys Finish Last18. Scattered19. Words I Might Have Ate20.

hardtoconcentrate Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Nah, I couldn't use an Ipod in work serving customers. Also, I don't drive myself and am always just a passenger in a friends car-it would be rude to listen to an Ipod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
